The Old Mill - The Fourteenth Greatest Cartoon of All Time

As selected by members of the animation field.

This cartoon was groundbreaking as it was the first use of Disney's multiplane camera. It featured realistic depiction of animals, complex color and lighting, 3D effects, and detailed weather effects.

The techniques learned in the making of this short were used in subsequent Disney productions, especially Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and Bambi.

Don't know the list, but know two that must be on there as it was drilled into us at Cal Arts.

"Flowers and Trees" - First color cartoon
"Steamboat Willy" - First sound cartoon (everyone knows this one though)
"Gertie the Dinosaur" - First cartoon (Though this has been disproved)
